Alternating Side Lunge

Moving laterally is a great way to work the glutes on the sides of your pelvis (known as the gluteus medius) that help stabilize the pelvis, making this a great exercise for runners.

  • Start with your feet directly under your hips. Step your right foot wide to the side, coming into a lunge, with your left fingers touching your right foot. Your right knee shouldn't go beyond your right toes. Keep your chest lifted and your weight in your heels.
  • Push into your right foot to return to standing to complete one rep.
  • Complete 20 reps (10 each side).
